using ANSI tolerance carbide drill bits, the nominal areas of the reinforcing bars and
the stress areas of the threaded rods. These estimates do not account for waste.

Drill proper sized hole. Clean out hole from bottom
with clean forced air. Complete hole preparation
with use of a brush and repeat cleaning with clean
forced air (leave no dust or slurry).
2 When starting new cartridge or nozzle, dispense
and discard enough adhesive until uniform dark
grey color is achieved. Insert the nozzle into the
bottom of the hole and fill to 1/2 the hole depth.
Installation steps
3 Insert the selected rod slowly by hand
into the bottom of the hole with a slow
twisting motion. This insures the adhesive
fills voids and crevices uniformly
